While the 2018 schedule will not be announced until the spring, is it too soon to think about the Cowboys opening the season against an NFC East opponent once again?

With the Philadelphia Eagles winning Super Bowl LII on Sunday, they will kick off the 2018 regular season at Lincoln Financial Field in early September with a Thursday night game.

While that opener will garner ratings regardless of the opponent, having the Eagles and Cowboys open the season would almost certainly be a ratings boon for a league that saw the numbers slide in 2017.

There are some other compelling possibilities when looking at the Eagles’ opponents at home.
